Trying to fit Glockenspiel into my kit

Trying to fit Glockenspiel into my kit. I'd like to play with a drum stick and not have to switch to holding the Glockenspiel mallets.

Thinking of something similar to those Dennis Chamber sticks with the regular tip at one end and a felt mallet at the other, but that won't work here.

Anyone know of a similar type of combo stick that might have a composite (hard rubber) end on one side and a regular wood or nylon tip at the other?
Or some other suggestion?

I know this would not be the ideal mallet for playing Glockenspiel, but this would just be for certain situations.

I've now found two possibilities:
  • Regal Tip John Beck MPX Combination Mallets
  • Liberty I LTB Bell / Timpani Combo Mallet

I'm hoping either of these will work well with bells or Glockenspiel.
If anyone has other thoughts or suggestions I'd love to hear them.

Peace
